L-E-N Killer M41A + Option *Updated*

The Marines of the USCMC (United States Colonial Marine Corps)
famously use the M41A Pulse Rifle as their standard issue weapon,
a futuristic assault rifle with a magazine capacity of 99 rounds
of armor piercing ammunition with a pump action 30mm grenade launcher
underneath the barrel.

The M41A Pulse Rifle is the successor to the Harrington Rifle which itself
was the descendant of the Weyland Storm Rifle first issued in
response of perfected barrel rifling method.

The M41 uses electronic pulse action to fire, controlled directly from the trigger.
The internal mechanism, including the rotating breech, is mounted on free floating
rails within a carbon fibre jacket. This assembly is recoil dampened to reduce the
effects of muzzle climb during burst and full automatic fire.

From the thumb selector, the weapon can be set to selective, four-round burst,
or full automatic fire, the latter allowing a rate of fire up to the weapon's
cyclic rate of 900 rpm. A manual cocking handle situated in the upper receiver
allows the operator to clear the breech in event of a stoppage, or to check the
chamber prior to stowage. An LED display situated just below the receiver indicates
the ammo remaining in the clip. This display can be dimmed for night operations.

hey bud the only minor thing wrong i found was the front of the rifle seems tilted to high and dosent match up with the aimer right.... am i just seeing things or am i right about this? im still voting 10 out of 10 but lowering the front would make it an 11.

@bigretard: Thanks mate. Yeah I will found and convert the Predator minigun for you. Yes I did rotated a bit the angle of this weapon to make it fit the fore hand under the granade launcher part. This is the unique way to make fit the fore hand grip for the weapons that have a granade launcher ;)

@Naruto 607: OK is good idea I will work in the two version for EFLC and Black version too.

bigretard mean: That all the assault rifles that have grenade launcher in GTA IV need a bit up rotation in the rifle barrel to let set correctly the fore hand grip (it is one of GTA IV´s animation´s limitations)

yeah minigun!!! can you use the minigun muzzle flash from the gta4 helicopter or make a custom one that is as big as in Predator? also is there anyway to do barrel rotating animation? that would be dope!

CORE.MAX2010, buddy, say you can replace this gun with TBoGT M249. Does the weapon sound provided by bigretard is essential for TBoGT M249? If you say Yes, I had tried this at home before this mod appear:

1. When I open the EP2_SFX.rpf with OpenIV, the names are detailed. When I scroll to EP2_RESIDENT.ivaud and try to export it, it stopped working.

2. When I open the EP2_SFX.rpf with SparkIV, the names are look like in coding or Blue Screen (meaning 0x... or well-encrypted) and I had to search it by size. I found myself the file look like EP2_RESIDENT.ivaud, but the actual is 0xed52a507.ivaud when I export it with SparkIV.

3. I felt very confused to replace which sounds are for the TBoGT weapons. I even mistakenly use the available sounds and they look weird in TBoGT.

Would you mind to help me naming the sounds for TBoGT weapons? 'cause when I open the file with GTA-IVaud 1.1.5, it's well encrypted AGAIN (meaning I can't see the real names and only the sounds appear when selected)!

hey Naruto i only tested my mods in Gta4 update 1.4 never messed with EFLC cuz ENBs are glitchy and once you played GTA4 with Gionight's ENB you gladly will sacrifice the fun of parachuting and plastic explosives that EFLC provides.

if you guys have texture loading issues from running giant car packs like i do i heard the solution is to get an SSD. i just bought one. Gta 4 uses a paging file like crazy so going from 32mb cache to 500mb cache should fix this annoying problem with textures.

@ bigretard: Give me the link. I want to test it since I don't have ENB installed.

My EFLC version is 1.1.1.0, but I got mods like The Extended Car Pack mod from Jotov_24 installed in TBoGT, just edited to add vehicles (like Bell 222 by udihow replacing TBoGT Swift), and my Unofficial Urban Weapons Pack mod that will about to release soon.

Other mods maybe like HUD and other things.

And yeah, You said that you bought an SSD. You get it from store or from the internet? If you say Internet, give me the link, along with the ENB you explained.

hey Naruto!! I thought getting that SSD was gonna fix the texture loading issue but it didn't..... it did improve framerates by about 15 percent or so and games load way faster and windows loads and works super fast so i decided to keep it anyway. got an ocz 128gb from newegg for $100. i had to RMA the first one. if you blue screen your pc the hardrive will either lock up or die so be carefull if you get one. also turn off power saving sleep mode for hardrive and also disk defrag these things are sketchy just read up and be carefull.
